Does anyone know where I could find guidelines on detecting money laundering activities...such as structuring, layering, placement, etc.?

Probably not the answer you were hoping for, but check out the reading list for the ACAMS exam (www.acams.org). That will give you a decent foundation.

And, technically, structuring, if anything, is a form of layering. Actually, I'm very tempted to say that structuring is distinct from money laundering (in the same way the fraud is distinct from money laundering.)

Thanks! That should help me with a place to start.

Thanks!

Go to the FFIEC website... there is good information on all areas of the bank..

Check out the above also, from BOL - it gives case studies.

Thanks for all the info.!
